Baruch Gottlieb: Most Human Condition

Oct 14, 2025, 7pm at AdBK Munich, room E.EG.0.28

Bringing togeth­er an array of ref­er­ences from eco-fem­i­nism to technophi­los­o­phy, from his­tor­i­cal mate­ri­al­ism to con­tem­po­rary art, I will affirm the imper­a­tive of inter­na­tion­al inter­sec­tion­al strug­gle and sol­i­dar­i­ty which has per­sist­ed through the his­to­ry of tech­no­log­i­cal and sci­en­tif­ic advance. Post-indus­tri­al soci­ety is real­ly most-indus-tri­al soci­ety, post-moder­ni­ty is real­ly most-moder­ni­ty, and «the post-human» con­di­tion is a most human con­di­tion.
